Latifur Rahman

Eight years since Chotoo, four years since Nana Bhai

The same day belongs to two of them, and maybe that’s exactly what they’d want.

4th Death Anniversary of Latifur Rahman / Tribute by Mahfuz Anam: Remembering the flagbearer of independent journalism

As we commemorate Latifur Rahman, we miss his presence, warmth and personal touch in championing the cause of independent journalism.

Symbols of ethics and courage

While Nana Bhai left a void when he passed away, and Faraaz’s life ended suddenly at such a tender age, they live on in our hearts.

The man whose commitment to ethics was unbending

3rd death anniversary of Latifur Rahman

Tribute by Mahfuz Anam: A fighter for independent journalism

The fact that Latifur Rahman, Shamim Bhai to us all, is no longer among us still feels unreal.

Remembering Latifur Rahman: An ethical leader and a true friend

My connection with Latifur Rahman (Shamim) goes back to pre-partition times when both our families lived in Calcutta (Kolkata), though we never actually met then.

Latifur Rahman: A legacy of integrity

Two years ago today, we lost Mr Latifur Rahman. He was a man of immense integrity and determination. He was an ethical entrepreneur, a champion of the free media, and a family man.

A true patriot

Latifur Rahman, or “Shamim bhai” as we knew him, is no longer with us today. In his absence, the business community in Bangladesh will never be the same again. His guidance and cool temperament will be greatly missed.

Condolences pour in for Latifur Rahman

With the death of founding chairman and CEO of Transcom Group Latifur Rahman, the country has lost a business leader who lived by the highest standards of business integrity and was a protector of professional and independent media.
